RANGERRAB 3,741 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I just hope the 4 are not Pedro signings. He needs to sign 9 to get 4 half decent ones Don't you think his signings have been better than MW's? But his stiffest test is yet to come which getting more players in to challenge for the title. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 (edited) I think pete in his desperation to be right about pedro is holding him up to never seen before standards. A pointless excercise as any manager right now wont catch celtc amd will as such be a failure.

pete 2,499 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Name me a manager who doesnt. I don't keep stats on managers but there is nothing to make me think Pedro will be the most successful. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his stiffest test is yet to come which getting more players in to challenge for the title. We were at a different level when Warburton came in and he bought specifically to get us promotion. Is Pena any better than Halliday? Is Herrera better than Waghorn? Is Dalcio better than Forrester? His defenders look better on paper but they have yet to prove themselves. Warburton shouldn't be the judging factor though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,741 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 After MW went no one was going to come in & turn things around overnight. We need to realise that. Strangely enough I think Pedro on taking over from MW finds himself in a similar situation to Klopp when he took over from Brenda at Liverpool I.e. Inheriting a whole load of dross from the previous manager he couldn't get rid off immediately. Don't get me wrong there are still parts of the team needing urgent attention such as the entire LH side which totally lacks quality and is mostly unproductive going forward. That needs sorted out as well as others 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sound like Maggie Thatcher and her people failing to vote is a vote for her.Do you have any concept of what you sound like asking him to get every signing right? Im not saying your wrong i am saying you are being ridiculous. Broken clocks are right twice a day. You may well be right. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warburton had us 2nd for most of the time. Under Warburton we could dominate games under Pedro we can't. What would Warburton have done if he was given the money Pedro has had. I am not a Warburton fan btw I am just not sure Pedro has improved us greatly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer 1,665 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 We were at a different level when Warburton came in and he bought specifically to get us promotion. Is Pena any better than Halliday? Is Herrera better than Waghorn? Is Dalcio better than Forrester? His defenders look better on paper but they have yet to prove themselves. Warburton shouldn't be the judging factor though. Pete, we know you've never liked Pedro from the start, but you do appear to twist things to suit your agenda. Yes Pena is better than Halliday, and yes the others are better than the players they replaced. But why don't you say: Is Jack better than Halliday? Is Morelos better than Waghorn? Is Candeias better than Forrester? The reason is because then you'd have to admit that he's made some really good signings. Our defence is much better than last year and the stats prove that. I really don't know what level of player you're expecting, but if you don't change your expectations, you'll be in for a few years of torment. So, rather than barking at the passing caravan, just try to remember where it was a few years ago. We are completely transformed as a club, albeit we have a few years of rebuilding ahead of us still. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
